My name is Christian Hanley. It’s important to me to share a bit about who I am, as I’ll be so involved in making your day special. I wear many hats in life: a devoted wife, a mother of 4 wonderful children, and a proud Hunny to our adorable grandson. My family means the world to me; they’re my source of passion and joy. As a woman of faith, I believe in striving to serve God each day, imperfect as I may be, with gratitude for all the blessings in my life. The love and support of our family and friends has made this venue possible, and that same love is what I hope to extend to you.

stian and her team run a very professional business. Christian being a delightful person to work with, has an “eye” for exquisite things. Her taste and talent is evident throughout the venue. Le Lieu is naturally gorgeous and is breathtaking the moment you walk in. We had so many people come up to us during the event and after that went on and on about the beauty of this charming place tucked away in Welsh, La.
I highly recommend Le Lieu if you are looking for a showstopper of a venue!
